ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Biz2X has brought the internationally-acclaimed Frontiers of Digital Finance (FDF) event to Abu Dhabi. Embracing the visionary theme, “Finance in 2030: How AI-Enabled Finance Will Propel Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Shape the New Economy,” the first Middle East event in the FDF conference series was a showcase of cutting-edge perspectives on the future of digital finance.
Hosted with support from Biz2X partners DLA Piper, King & Spalding, ADGM, AWS, and the U.S. U.A.E. Business Council, FDF: Abu Dhabi saw C-level decision makers from esteemed companies across the world, including Mastercard, Magnati, First Abu Dhabi Bank, Qarar, and SIMAH, converge to the luxury Four Seasons Hotel on Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi. The main topics in the moderator-led panels included artificial intelligence, economic transformation and financial policies that help to create sustainable growth in the Middle East.
Rohit Arora, CEO and Co-founder of Biz2X, said, “Our expansion into the Middle East is a strategic leap towards the future where finance and technology converge. Biz2X foresees an era of innovation in this region, and we are excited to be one of the leaders in making that journey possible.”
